Looks somewhat fimiliar...maybe you should do a search through the Sevenstock threads for pictures. I'm sure you'll find the car there somewhere...either that or search for the tri point engineering site and maybe they have some info for you (besides the fact that they are the ones who make the fenders for the widebody).

Yes, that car was mostly stock. It had an FCON and a boost controller. It used to belong to the owner of Tri-Point, but was sold for $11k shortly after Sevenstock. After spending a month in the shop for work, it hit some ice and was totalled. The car's being rebuilt. I'll get the owner (Simon) to chime in if I can.

ICE in San Francisco...... Yeah Right....

When he bought the car he bearly knew how to pull off.
With a lightened flywheel and a street clutch in it.
The owner that sold it to Simon told me they went to the onramp and then let him get in to the car and assisted him and made sure he could get the car moving so he could drive it home...

Ok so I would just like to clarify that that STUPID comment made earlier under my name was in fact NOT me but rather Manolis_D using my computer. I mean, come one, would I be foolish enough to not even realize there was a picture link there? no!
Just had to cover myself because, as we all know, reputation is EVERYTHING on the RX7forum!

hey guys! thats my car, i cannot believe theres a thread about it thanks everybody for their concern and compliments. yes i hit some ice and totalled the car lol.. no but the car did hydroplanned because the wide tires were catching too much water and couldnt push the water out of my tire treads fast enough. at least thats what the CHP told me, wasnt speeding(55mph) or anything. happened when rain started to pour out of the blue but my car is currently being rebuilt. it is going to be a slow and painful process not to mention the expenses. here are some info about my now new project car. it is going to stay wide with replaced fenders, new wheels(18's this time and wider!), new coilover suspensions, new custom fitted front end, single turbo , microtech!!(thanks Brandon), fd3s upper intake manifold conversion, lots more i cannot think of right now, and everything that'll make all this work safely!! we'll get this sexy bad girl back and hauling *** with style. that is if the rx7club members will help right??

Looking at another Tri-Point Widebody FC almost makes me miss my old widebody FC.

But FC's with wideboy don't look all that great actually..... the only widebody kit that looks good is one made by Mariah Motorsports, sold for mere $4000.....
